80 days to fall

Chapter 4

A/N: Picture of Hebe on side. 

Ashton's POV:

The warm soapy water trickled down my back. Spraying every inch of my body clean. I had been stood in the shower for a good 30 minutes. My mind going miles and thinking about how good last night was.

As I stepped out of the shower I wrapped the floral scented towel around my waist and slipped through the door.

I chucked on my black skinny jeans and white shirt. Sprayed some Linx on and I was ready.As I was grabbing my phone and wallet the door opened and in came Ashton.

A saw in the background a girl holding his hand as he led her more into the room. My eyes adjusted and I soon recognised the girl to be Hebe.My eyes widened and a small gasp slipped out of my mouth. She had gotten so pretty and my eyes trailed down to her model like figure. Why did I ever leave her..

As our relationship purely didn't work because of her dad we still stayed friends.But as time went we stopped contacting each other and we just grew apart I guess.

Ashton spoke up and said" hey harry, guess who's now at this uni?" I was still in shock from how tall and stunning Hebe had grown that I forgot to greet them and was staring.

I soon jumped up and made my way towards Hebe and Ashton. "Hebe, you look so good. I can't believe your here."

She gave me a smile and said "well , I guess your stuck with me now.And come here."She stepped forward and wrapped me in a hug just like she used to when we were together. "I've missed you harry, how've you been?"

I pulled away from the hug. "Good. I've been great actually and u?"

She shrugged "not bad I guess." We both smiled at each other and I forgot about Ashton awkwardly standing next to us.

I looked towards Ashton and gestured between the both of them."so, you to eh? When did this all happen?"

They both looked over to each other and I could see the look of happiness in there eyes. Just like I used to have. Maybe Hebe just does that to people, makes then feel special and happy. "It's fairly new still. About 2 weeks ago. Sorry I didn't tell you mate , it just slipped my mind."

"Nah, no-worries. I'm happy for you."A feeling in my lower stomach bubbled up. Was that jealousy? Jealous of my best friend dating my ex . "Anyways, you guys have fun. I better get going to my English class." I looked at Ashton and he had a look in his eye that read 'tell me all that happened last night when your back' I just nodded and left the room.

As i walked into the english block to go to my lesson my mind was on the amazing summer me and Hebe had had together. It was indescribable and god did she know how to have fun.The echo of sirens rang through my head as a vast memory and the corners of my mouth lifted to make a wide grin. Onlookers must think i'm crazy, but i didn't give a fuck. 

I turned the corner and entered the large classroom filled with slack dash teenagers. I was pretty earlier so the room was reasonably empty. I got my books out of my bag and shoved my glasses onto the crook of my nose. My eyes swept the room until they stopped on Ashley.

Shit, Ashley.

I completely forgot about our night we shared last night. A pang of guilt travelled through my body as i shifted my body to sit next to her. Her eyes met mine and instantly she looked away. Almost like she was nervous.

After sitting in silence for what felt like forever but was probably 10 seconds i tried to get Ashleys's attention as she was looking anywhere but me. I gently nudged her and leaned towards her ear to whisper " last night was fun." I could see the red peeking out from her collar about to spread onto her cheeks. She glanced over to me and then went back to her apple mac. That's strange, she would normally have a witty comment to say back.

I knew what would get her to speak up. I smirked and spoke " maybe if i get in a little trouble you can help me out. If you know what i mean." This time she didn't look at me but she spoke just under a whisper " or maybe not." 

The comment was blunt and her face held no emotion. What is up with her? Did i do something wrong to make her put off?  Why was she ignoring me? I was beyond confused at this point. I sighed just as the professor walked into the room and started the lesson. 

Maybe ill ask Kendall if she said anything to her later.

Ashley's POV:

I cant. I really cant give in. My mum would be so ashamed if i came to uni and just fooled around with boys. I could sense Harry was trouble. I don't know what it was about him but something just didn't fit. He was very flirty and outgoing but there must be something else if I'm feeling this. He's dangerous and i shouldn't get mixed up with those sort of people. I could get very hurt. 

But.. He's so hot and hes just got this ora that makes me attracted to him physically and mentally. Behind that cheeky personality I'm sure there's a sense of kindness and care. But its just the key to crack him open and find those emotions that we didn't know existed. Everyone has them. Everyone has a part of themselves that only other people can find. We cant find it ourselves. Its the person that finds it is the person that brings it out of you.
